This model is discontinued
AirTAC has phased out the MTAL series. You can still order this code here: we ship the direct replacement MTBL32X35SCA, with the same bore, stroke, output force, port and mounting, so it fits the same application. The replacement upgrades to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG / DMSG / EMSG sensors (the MAL used CS1-M / DS1-M).

The AirTAC MTAL Rear Single Acting Mini Cylinder MTAL32X35SCA is a single acting, pull (spring extend) aluminum-barrel mini cylinder with a Ø32mm bore and 35mm stroke, G1/8 ports and a fixed rubber bumper. Air drives the pull (work) stroke and the spring returns the rod — it rests extended on air loss. This model is discontinued; the direct replacement is the AIRTACMTBLREARSINGLEACTINGMINICYLINDERMTBL32X35SCA.
The AirTAC MTAL32X35SCA is a discontinued 32mm bore, 35mm stroke, single-acting pull cylinder with a spring-extend fail-safe. Air retracts the 12mm rod to provide 261.2 N of usable pull force at 0.5 MPa, while an internal spring extends it when air is released. The direct replacement is the MTBL32X35SCA, matching the bore, stroke, G1/8 port, and CA clevis mount.
This MTAL32X35SCA features a CA pivot clevis back cover that swings on a pin to absorb arcing loads. It uses threaded covers and a -S magnet compatible with older CS1-M or DS1-M switches. The MTBL32X35SCA upgrade shifts to a riveted rolling-packed body and CMSG, DMSG, or EMSG sensors. A fixed rubber bumper absorbs end-of-stroke impact, and you must never apply external loads to the spring-extend stroke.

| Port size | G1/8 |
| Rod thread | M10×1.25 |
| Fluid | Air (filtered by 40µm element) |
|---|---|
| Operating pressure | 0.2 – 1.0 MPa |
| Proof pressure | 1.5 MPa |
| Temperature | -20 to +70 °C |
| Speed range | 50 – 800 mm/s |
| Cushion | Fixed rubber bumper |
| Max standard stroke | Up to 100 mm |
Single-acting minimum working pressure is 0.2 MPa (the air must overcome the return spring). Do not apply an external load during the spring return stroke. The AIRTACMTBLREARSINGLEACTINGMINICYLINDERMTBL32X35SCA carries the same single-acting ratings.
| Pressure | Pull force (net of spring) |
|---|---|
| 0.5 MPa | 261.2 N |
| 0.7 MPa | 399.4 N |
Usable single-acting force after the return spring — lower than a same-bore double-acting cylinder. Size with a margin.
| MTAL | Single acting, pull (spring extend) aluminum-barrel mini cylinder (discontinued). |
|---|---|
| 32 | Bore size in mm (20/25/32/40). |
| ×35 | Stroke length in mm. |
| S | Optional magnet for a CS1-M / DS1-M sensor (MTBL uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG). |
| CA / U / CM | Back cover: CA pivot, U flat-end or CM round-end. |
Replacement: MTAL → MTBL. Related: MSAL/MSBL (single-acting push), MAL/MBL (double acting).
Retracts a carton sealing arm on a packaging line, using 261.2 N at 0.5 MPa to pull the flap clear before the spring extends it to a safe open rest position.
Draws back a fabric guide on a textile loom; the CA clevis absorbs lateral arc stress while the spring-extend fail-safe clears the web on air loss.
Pulls a machine tool safety latch closed against 0.7 MPa pressure (399.4 N), releasing to spring-extend and physically unlocking the door during an air drop.
To replace the MTAL32X35SCA, install the MTBL32X35SCA. Confirm the 32mm bore, 35mm stroke, G1/8 PT port, M10x1.25 rod thread, CA clevis, and the -S magnet. Your 3/2 valve must supply at least 0.2 MPa to overcome the return spring. The fail-safe home is extended, and no external load is allowed on the spring-extend stroke.
Size both ways: step down to the 25mm bore if 137.2 N at 0.5 MPa is enough, or step up to the 40mm bore for 439.4 N at 0.5 MPa via a G1/4 port. Remember the MTAL -S magnet uses CS1-M/DS1-M switches, while the MTBL replacement uses CMSG/DMSG/EMSG.
Upgrade checklist
Yes, the MTAL32X35SCA is discontinued. The direct replacement is the MTBL32X35SCA, matching the 32mm bore, 35mm stroke, CA clevis, and G1/8 port. The MTBL upgrades the body to a riveted rolling-packed design and changes the -S magnet sensor compatibility from CS1-M/DS1-M to CMSG/DMSG/EMSG.
It is a single-acting pull cylinder, so air retracts the rod and the spring extends it. The usable pull force is 261.2 N at 0.5 MPa and 399.4 N at 0.7 MPa. The minimum operating pressure is 0.2 MPa to overcome the internal return spring. Fail-safe home is extended.
